(Reuters) - Phil Falcone's hedge fund sued satellite TV mogul Charlie Ergen and his Dish Network Corp for $4 billion on Tuesday for an alleged loan-trading scheme aimed at stripping Falcone of his control over LightSquared Inc, a bankrupt wireless communications business.
The lawsuit in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan was filed on Tuesday at the same time Ergen was confirming on an earnings call with Dish investors that the company was interested in acquiring LightSquared.
Billionaire Ergen has turned his focus to LightSquared after bowing out of a takeover fight for another wireless company, Sprint Corp, which agreed to a deal with Japan's SoftBank Corp. Ergen increased his bid for LightSquared to $2.2 billion last month.
That bid is meant to kick off an auction planned for December, though Tuesday's lawsuit could throw that off course.
LightSquared is a provider of satellite-based mobile voice and data services to hundreds of thousands of devices used in the public safety, security and asset-tracking sectors. It is building a 4G LTE broadband mobile network that it says will serve 260 million people.
